[QUOTE="God prefers Diesels, post: 11508521, member: 303746"]Kind of. A leaking injector means it's dumping fuel when it's not supposed to, and washes the cylinder wall. In this case, it's not sealing at the seat, so when combustion occurs, some exhaust pushes past the injector, and up where it doesn't belong. So soot can get in your fuel (depending on injector style) and in your oil (because it goes right past the injector into the valve cover, and now it's in the crank case). You seeing more vapor than usual out your blowby tube?[/QUOTE]
